but the larger benefit would be to reduce corruption in washington. congressmen get cash for their campaigns. and in return for this, they often give away preferential treatment in the tax code to special interest groups, to company, to lobbies. tax expenditures are plaerly valuable because unlike actually spending, which has to be renewed in every year's buchlkt tax expenditures are in the code and the benefit is received every year. it's the gift that keeps on giving. now, since we can't do much about campaign finance reform thanks to the supreme court, why not get rid of what the cash often buys. the largest tax breaks are not to corporations. they're to people for things like home mortgage deductions. even these are vastly overdone or should be limited or phased out. britain got rid of it with no adverse effects. canada never had one. and yet they have a similar rate of homeownership to the united states. but forget about the economics for a moment. just as a corruption cleansing mechanism, let's get rid of tax expenditures. if korng wants to give

i think most people might think new york city, washington, d.c., but instead they need to point their eyes on minneapolis? >> yes, the midwest does well in intelligence. in fact, visitors rated minneapolis number one on the most intelligent people. interestingly, residents of minneapolis, st. paul rated themselves number 5. so i'm not sure what that says, but also interesting is visitors felt the tech savviness of this city was really top notch. so i wonder if there is some correlation between tech savvy and intelligence. >> and you have to take an ice cream break every now and then, so why not go to the city that ranks the highest in ice cream, and that would be savannah. >> this is a surprise to me, certainly. i love savannah. it's a place dripping with culture and history. i had no idea it was also dripping ice cream cones. leopo leopold's is a place i would recommend. it dates back to the 1990s. they have great flavors just for the holidays from everything from sugar plum fairy to a cheesecake flavor with some pumpkin spice. what i love about this place is it feels authentically a
